![]() I know everyone’s skin and style is different, so I’m hoping I just happened to pick a few things that just weren’t ideal for me. There is certainly potential for the Healthy Elixir Foundation and Brow Powder, but they don’t hold a candle to any of my favorite drugstore products.Īfter this unfortunate experience, I am definitely nervous about testing some of the products on the recently published list. I know everybody likes different things, but there is absolutely no way the Outlast All-Day Concealer or Melting Pout Gel Liquid Lipstick should have made a best of anything list. To be honest, I’m pretty disappointed in how these so-called “Best of Beauty” products worked out. If you want a long-wearing, transfer-proof liquid lipstick, this is not your product. If you’re looking for a really pigmented gloss, this might be for you. The pigmentation and color was great, but its name doesn’t do it justice. ![]() It stayed sticky and glossy on my lips, and easily transferred onto my food and beverages. After applying, it never actually dries down. This product really just needs to be renamed. I would use it again if I had nothing else, but I definitely won’t be reaching for this over a brow pencil.Ĭovergirl Melting Pout Gel Liquid Lipstick ( 105) $7.99 I didn’t hate this product, but I also didn’t love it. This made filling in that portion of my brows pretty difficult. The powder is so pigmented that the slightest touch from the applicator results in a dramatic deposit of color. I also found this difficult to use on the innermost part of my brows. This happened to me while I was using it the first time, and I was forced to re-do my foundation and concealer underneath that eye because there was no way to remove the brow powder without ruining my make-up. But be warned- since this is a powder product, if you aren’t careful, powder can fall out underneath the eyes. It could be great if you don’t need a lot of precision, and you just want to slap some powder onto your eyebrows. The applicator is quite strange, and it holds a surprising amount of product. This product has some potential, but there would definitely be a learning curve required to use it. The Maybelline Fit Me concealer is a much better product if you are in the market for a drugstore concealer.Ĭovergirl Fill, Shape & Define Brow Powder ( Soft Brown) $11.99 I could go on and on about how much this didn’t work for me, but I will spare you the whining, and just suggest an alternative. In all honesty, you would be better off just using your full-coverage foundation under the eyes to cover dark circles. The concealer didn’t offer much in terms of coverage either. ![]() I hated the applicator, and really hated the pinky undertones. I’m gonna be honest y’all… this was BY FAR the worst product of the bunch. At that point, I couldn’t handle it anymore and had to take it off.Ĭovergirl Outlast All-Day Concealer ( 820- Light) $11.99 Usually the scent from foundations will dissipate after a few minutes, but this foundation continued to smell for the next hour. My biggest complaint about this foundation was the smell! It was almost as if they tried to cover the chemical smell with a sweet perfume, which didn’t work, but they just left it that way. ![]() But with a little concealer and powder, I was able to make the shade work. I had a hard time selecting a shade that would work for me, and I ended up picking a color that was a little too dark. Unfortunately, the shade selection is pretty slim. The foundation is definitely full-coverage, and has a pretty natural finish. The packaging is very classy, and I always appreciate when foundations have a pump- it makes it so much easier to use, and I feel like I make less of a mess, as well as waste less product. This full-coverage foundation contains SPF 20, and comes in a glass jar with a pump on top. Since Covergirl had the most products on the Best of Beauty 2017 list, I purchased those four products.Ĭovergirl Vitalist Healthy Elixir Foundation ( 745- Warm Beige) $11.99 Rather than try to purchase every single product, I opted to test products from just one brand. Happy Monday Loves! After seeing the recent release of the 2018 Allure Best of Beauty list, and lists of these products on the Ulta/Sephora websites, I thought I would share some products I had tried from the 2017 list.Įvery year, Allure comes out with awards for best foundation, best concealer, best lipstick, etc. ![]()
